can you explain what a "wizard of oz" moment means?
- ashtonkem 6y agoIt’s a reference to the man behind the curtain being smaller and less impressive than what their original image made them look like.
- pstuart 6y agoI suppose it's the moment when Toto pulls back the curtain to reveal the great wizard is merely a man operating a machine.
- topkai22 6y agoIn the wizard of oz, the “great and powerful wizard” is actually a tiny old man with no powers who uses stage magic tricks, which is revealed at the climax of the movie by a tiny dog pulling back a curtain. It means that something is revealed to be fundamentally weaker than it appears.
- person5 6y agoSpoiler Alert The wizard isn't actually a super powerful wizard. It's literally just a dude behind a curtain talking into a microphone and operating some contraption. [1] If you hear someone use the phrase "man behind the curtain" this is what it's referring to. [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWyCCJ6B2WE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWyCCJ6B2WE
